Tune Up
 

Hi All

The search is over, got a car last week. I'm new to all of this so please bear with me as ill have a million questions if you don't mind.
I have a 1947 A-B that I want to do a tune up on with period correct plug wires and whatever else might show.
Any info would me appreciated.
Thank You

Take a look at VanPelt's site.

Congratulations ! Good to see another '47 AB around here.

Re: Tune Up
 

Congrats on your new car! Keep us posted, and pics would be nice.

Re: Tune Up
 

Glad you finally found an early Ford - there is a ton of knowledge on this site, so post some pictures of what you have and ask away. Also, pickup a few good books on the Flathead (VanPelt and others will have them) - always pays to read up and do some research before you head down the 'parts buying' path.

Good luck and welcome on board!

what's a 1947 AB, hope it not a stupid question, car or truck, what model ?

Re: Tune Up
 

oldasi .... I abbreviated .... 1947 with the 100 hp 59 AB engine typical in that year's cars and trucks..

Re: Tune Up
 

Thank you for the warm welcome and info. I actually bought the car from an ad on here so thanks for that as well, it was under hill climber/beach racer in NY. Pics will follow as I as I take them. Is Bubbas closed? I called twice and no return call. Any of you go to TROG?

Re: Tune Up
 

Ive seen some real nice seat belts and leather hood straps. Any leads on those? Id like to get a hole of a decent hood too if theres anything out there?
Thanks All
